OnLive: 10K Likes in 7 Hours

Today OnLive released a statement saying one of the managers had a "bet" that the OnLive Facebook page couldn't get 10K likes in 48 hours, and if the community did, EVERYONE would get any playpass (game) for $1.  And good news, the community reached this in only 7 hours!  Since then we got a statement giving us information about receiving our $1 game!  

WOW, you all just exceeded my wildest expectations. We added 10,000 OnLive fans in about 7 hours! That means WE won the bet, and every US OnLive user is going to get their next Full PlayPass game for $1! Look for an email tomorrow morning for your promo code and details! You guys proved me right, Thank you!

Mortal Kombat to get Online Pass for Multiplayer?

Warner Bros. seems to not like the idea for used games; much like EA and THQ. Originally reported by Joystiq, who had received this tid-bit by their reliable source, had also said that this would happen with F.E.A.R. 3 and Batman: Arkham City.

It's also been said that retailers are going to be aware of the online passes, but Warner Bros. in no way will advertise this on game's cases. The only thing that will be available for people who have purchased the game used is a two-day free trial for online play.

As more and more publishers are going this route, I honestly like it. It battles used games where in the end, publishers and developers will continue getting money out of this. After all, used purchases will not have any money going back to these companies that have put a lot of hard work in their titles
